2025 Ford Bronco Sport Looks to Adopt the Mustang's Touchscreen

• A disguised Ford Bronco Sport prototype was caught with a large touchscreen that looks like the Ford Mustang's 13.2-inch Sync 4 system.

• The Bronco Sport also wore Goodyear Wrangler Territory all-terrain tires, different from the Falken WildPeak set on the current Badlands trim.

• While our spy photos don't show any other obvious changes, expect to see some refreshed styling for the 2025 model year.

The 2025 Ford Bronco Sport is due for a mid-cycle refresh, and that looks to include a bigger touchscreen and possibly a new off-road trim. With camouflaged prototypes roaming around on public streets, our spy photographer captured a couple interesting details that foreshadow notable changes to the baby Bronco.

Larger Touchscreen

The Bronco Sport shares a platform with the Ford Escape, which received a host of updates for the 2023 model year, including a newly available 13.2-inch touchscreen infotainment system. That same display featuring Ford's Sync 4 software debuted on the new-for-2024 Mustang, and now it looks to be heading to the Bronco Sport's dashboard.

The new touchscreen is considerably bigger than the 8.0-inch Sync 3 unit that's currently standard on all Bronco Sport trim levels. While we don't know for sure, it's possible that the smaller display remains standard on lower-spec versions, which is the case with the Escape's lineup.

In the Bronco Sport, the extra-wide touchscreen takes over the real estate where the vertically oriented air vents are located. That suggests they'll be moved down lower on the center stack, most likely in a horizontal fashion. It remains to be seen if the HVAC controls will see any revisions.
